I’m going to try to keep this fairly simple, since I just made a very long post about indicators of psychic power/witchcraft ability in the natal chart, so here are some general things I can say:

The easiest one is to go by elements: water signs for water craft, air signs for air craft, earth signs for earth craft, and fire signs for fire craft.

Beyond that, I would look at the information below for your Sun, Moon and Rising signs, and consider combining all three disciplines into your craft, as you very likely have a special talent or pull towards each:

Aries: warrior witchcraft (fighting for what you believe in, protecting what you care about), blood magic, candle magic, charging objects, amulets and talismans

Taurus: cottage witchcraft (making your home your sanctuary), crystal magic, herbalism, nature craft, prosperity spells

Gemini: hedge witchcraft (moving between liminal planes), astral projection, herbalism, energy magic, communication spells, travel blessings

Cancer: lunar witchcraft, kitchen craft, spellwork, medicinal herbalism, prophecy, love spells

Leo: solar witchcraft (working magic on the solstices, equinoxes and sabbats), hypnosis, charms and hexes, sex magic

Virgo: garden/green witchcraft, herbalism, solitary craft, grounding, transmutation, healing

Libra: art/creative witchcraft (expressing yourself through magic and putting your unique vision into your craft), music craft, spellwork, charms, 

Scorpio: shadow craft (becoming acquainted with the dark side of yourself and channeling that energy), nocturnal magic, primal magic, energy manipulation  

Sagittarius: wildcraft (combines green witchery with herbalism, adding a special focus on medicinal herbalism and outdoor meditation), weather craft, energy work, travel magic

Capricorn: kitchen witchcraft, green witchcraft, elemental craft, tech witchcraft, ancestral magic, work/career spells 

Aquarius: astro/cosmic witchcraft (astrology, astronomy, the planets and skies), bond-breaking spells, breaking negative spells or curses

i wish somebody looked at me like the way he looked at that onion

Binding rune that stops curses and bad intentions from within the own family. It also helps you to start life over.

I created this binding rune when my best friend told me his mum started cursing him after he told her he was pansexual and dating a boy. So this rune is specifically for LGBTQIA+ people but of course helps with other topics as well.

Don’t be afraid to come out 💛

At the end of a long day, there can be a strong temptation to just flop onto the nearest comfortable piece of furniture and just shut down. While it does bring relief, here’s one step I recommend taking first to help you cleanse, de-stress, and disengage from the working portion of your day.

When you get home, put your accoutrements away and wash your hands. Attend to any first-thing-in-the-door rituals you have. Then go to your tub, take off your shoes and socks, get any long garments or trouser legs out of the way, and wash your feet.

It doesn’t have to be a full bath. You don’t have to bend or scrub. It doesn’t have to take more than a minute. The water can be whatever temperature is comfortable for you. Use a bucket or run the tap, whichever is easier. Flex your toes a bit, let the water run between them. Let it flow over your ankles if you can.

As you do, take some deep breaths and consciously let go of the working or schooling or errand-running portion of your day. That’s done with, and you’re home. You might still have some things to do over the course of the evening, but you’re headed for some nice leisure time too. If it helps, you can visualize the stress flowing out through your feet and into the water to be washed down the drain.

If you wish, you can add soothing herbs or bath oils to the water before washing your feet. These can be aligned to whatever magical purpose you like.

When you’re done, rinse the tub, dry off your feet, and go about your evening. I recommend clean footwear like fresh socks or house shoes if you don’t wish to go barefoot.

I do this every day when I get home, with a bucket of cool water in my tub. It’s very refreshing, especially on hot days, and I’ve found it a very soothing way to separate my work day from my evening time. Plus, it cleans my feet and softens my calluses. In the winter, I use hot water and it’s a pleasant way to warm up after tromping around in the cold or sitting in a chilly office all day.

FOOD

Find your nearest food bank or mission, for food

grocery stores with free samples, bakeries + stores with day-old bread

different fast food outlets have cheaper food and will generally let you hang out for a while.

some dollar stores carry food like cans of beans or fruit

SHELTER

Sleeping at beaches during the day is a good way to avoid suspicion and harassment

sleep with your bag strapped to you, so someone can’t steal it

Some churches offer short term residence

Find your nearest homeless shelter

Look for places that are open to the public

A large dumpster near a wall can often be moved so that flipping up the lids creates an angled shelter to stay dry

HYGIENE

A membership to the YMCA is usually only 10$, which has a shower, and sometimes laundry machines and lockers.

Public libraries have bathrooms you can use

Dollar stores carry low-end soaps and deodorant etc.

Wet wipes are all purpose and a life saver

Local beaches, go for a quick swim

Some truck stops have showers you can pay for

Staying clean is the best way to prevent disease, and potentially get a job to get back on your feet

Pack 7 pairs of socks/undies, 2 outfits, and one hooded rain jacket
